If in SD and down town, go check out Mr. Tiki Mai Tai lounge. Don't actually eat there unless you want to take a second mortgage out on your house for so so food. Wasn't really impressed with the drinks either. My Tai (LOL!) was a little strong for my tastes. But I was assured it was Trader Vics authentic before I ordered it.........BEFORE. Anyway - cool decor, need to work on the rest of it.

I thought their food was salty, and their drinks lacking. On the other hand, their waitreses were young and hip.

IMHO the place is not (yet) worthy of having Mai Tai in their name. A Mr. Mai Tai's mai tai is like a peck on the cheek. On the other hand, a Bali Hai mai tai is like a kick in the head.
